  • Volvo V70

    Because I'm now the proud owner of a garage, I was able to do a detail today even if it was raining all day long.

    Steps:
    - NXT Carwash (2 passes; high pressure washer)
    - Clay + QD
    - #83
    - step 3 (Deep Crystal Carnauba Wax - something I had around - reminder to myself: order NXT)

    the front of the car was a mess:

    close up:

    "brake dust for free, anyone?"

    from behind, not a pretty view either


    here are some after shots - I'll try to upload some more photographs tomorrow




    those black "stains" are actually the fibers of the carpet that are in another direction than the surrounding area, so not really stained. (tomorrow I'll probably have an pre-detail interior shot as well)


    no detail without a reflection shot!



    it was a 8-9 hour job but the client was satisfied (amazed to be correct) so I'm happy as well, after this detailing day.

    maybe not the best color to work with,but you made a awesome job
    Detailing cars is a form of art. Most appreciate it, few possess the required skill and even fewer understand it.

      Looks great now!

      I see the wheel had a good curb shot.
